Mark Michelson 10fa49e327 Add rtcp-mux support
This commit adds support for RFC 5761: Multiplexing RTP Data and Control
Packets on a Single Port. Specifically, it enables the feature when
using chan_pjsip.

A new option, "rtcp_mux" has been added to endpoint configuration in
pjsip.conf. If set, then Asterisk will attempt to use rtcp-mux with
whatever it communicates with. Asterisk follows the rules set forth in
RFC 5761 with regards to falling back to standard RTCP behavior if the
far end does not indicate support for rtcp-mux.

The lion's share of the changes in this commit are in
res_rtp_asterisk.c. This is because it was pretty much hard wired to
have an RTP and an RTCP transport. The strategy used here is that when
rtcp-mux is enabled, the current RTCP transport and its trappings (such
as DTLS SSL session) are freed, and the RTCP session instead just
mooches off the RTP session. This leads to a lot of specialized if
statements throughout.

===========================================================
From 14.3.0 to 14.4.0:
res_rtp_asterisk:
- The RTP layer of Asterisk now has support for RFC 5761: "Multiplexing RTP
Data and Control Packets on a Single Port." So far, the only channel driver
that supports this feature is chan_pjsip. You can set "rtcp_mux = yes" on
a PJSIP endpoint in pjsip.conf to enable the feature.
New in 14.0.0
ARI:
- The policy for when to send "Dial" events has changed. Previously, "Dial"
events were sent on the calling channel's topic. However, starting in Asterisk
14, if there is no calling channel on which to send the event, the event is
instead sent on the called channel's topic. Note that for the ARI channels
resource's dial operation, this means that the "Dial" events will always be
sent on the called channel's topic.
Queue:
- When reloading the members of a queue, the members added dynamically (i.e.
added via the CLI command "queue add" or the AMI action "QueueAdd") now have
their ringinuse value updated to the value of the queue. Previously, the
ringinuse value for dynamic members was not updated on reload.
Queue log:
- New RINGCANCELED event is logged when the caller hangs up while ringing.
The data1 field contains number of miliseconds since start of ringing.
Channel Drivers:
chan_dahdi:
- Support for specifying a DAHDI channel using a path under /dev/dahdi
("by name") has been removed. It was never used. Instead you should
use kernel-level channel number allocation using span assignments.
See the documentation of dahdi-linux and dahdi-tools.
